DIY--Dye It Yourself

I learned about how to dye your leather in a workshop and I wanted to apply patterns to make a piece more personal. I used these drafting dots as masking tape and applied on a piece of vegetable tanned leather.
The dye I use is from tandyleatherfactory.com, where I got most of my leather tools and supplies. I applied it with thick paper towel in circular motion.
After it dries I removed the dots. I also rubbed the surface with sponge to make the edges more feathery.
Ready to make anything in style!
I decided to make a coin purse with zipper. Vegetable leather is so beautiful and works well with leather stain.
